Sing and dance to Chairlift's new lyrically nonsensical album tracks

(01/26/12 12:00am)

Something, Chairlift's first album since 2008, is a solid collection of joyful, danceable songs that look back to 1980s New Wave music without feeling too derivative or reductive. Each track on the album is polished and well-constructed, with singer and keyboardist Caroline Polachek's soaring vocals and melodies providing the perfect balance to bandmate Patrick Wimberly's grooving bass lines.


Relish: "beautiful people meet" at Chapultepec Lupita

(04/22/11 12:00am)

Chapultepec Lupita, named after a Chapultepec Lupita, named after a battle in which many children sacrificed themselves fighting Americans, is a staple of late-night college dining. Conveniently located on Richmond Ave. and open 24 hours a day, the restaurant offers a selection of decent food at moderate prices. It is a hole-in-the-wall sort of place, with no host and a hard-to-find back entrance, but it is definitely worth the drive or drunken 4 a.m. cab ride when nothing but home-style Mexican food will do.
